Your post is incorrect. Brinker's former timing model issued a sell in the low 2000's in 1988 and followed with a buy in the low 2000's but slightly above the prior sell. In the context of the market from his initial buy in 1982 on NY radio at Dow 800 to the current Dow 11000 level, this proves to be a minor blip. However, the timing model currently in use began in 1988 therefore the events of the prior year are not relevant to the current model which has stayed in the market for entire rise since Dow 2365 in 1990. Hulbert currently ranks Brinker in top 3 for market timing with 18.5% annual return last 8 years and 23.6% last 5 years.
